Active Directory Support
Active Directory is a directory service. The directory is where information about
users and resources is stored. The directory service allows access so you can
manipulate those resources.
Active Directory provides a mechanism that gives administrators the ability to
manage computers, groups, users, domains, security policies, and any type of
user-defined objects. The mechanism used by Active Directory to accomplish this is
known as Group Policy. With Group Policy, administrators define settings that can
be applied to computers or users in the domain.
ThinkVantage Technology products currently use a variety of methods for
gathering settings used to control program settings, including reading from specific
application-defined registry entries.
For Rescue and Recovery, Active Directory can manage such settings as:
v
Set back up locations.
v
Set back up dates and times.
Administrative (ADM) template files
The ADM (Administrative) template file defines policy settings used by
applications on the client computers. Policies are specific settings that govern the
application behavior. Policy settings also define whether the user will be allowed
to set specific settings through the application.
